CPK isoenzymes in evaluation of myocardial ischemic injury
Abstract:
Enzymatic criteria for diagnosis of myocardial infarction have suffered from a lack of specificity, since enzyme elevations also occur in noncardiac disorders. The MB isoenzyme of creatine phosphokinase has provided a way out of this difficulty. Not only is it specific to injured myocardium but a recently developed plasma assay makes possible both diagnosis and, in many cases, measurement of the extent of damage.

The essential diagnostic tools for detecting myocardial necrosis and monitoring individuals suspected of having acute coronary syndrome (ACS) include:
Troponins
Troponins, particularly cardiac troponins I and T, are the most precise and sensitive markers of myocardial injury. They are detectable within 4-6 hours of myocardial injury and remain...
